Synopsis
Montmorency, the man who leads a double life as both a criminal and a gentleman, is back for his most thrilling adventure yet in the next installment of this spellbinding series.
As the nineteenth century draws to a close, war is in the air, and influenza is sweeping the globe. After twenty years as a gentleman, Montmorency is glad to be free of Scarper, his wretched alter ego. However, when Montmorency's young friend Frank finds himself caught in the middle of a murderous political plot, Montmorency may have no choice but to call upon none other than Scarper for help.
Follow Montmorency, Fox-Selwyn, Dr. Farcett, and a whole new generation of characters on their travels from London to Scotland, Italy, and America.

Praise for Montmorency on the Rocks
[Montmorency on the Rocks] delivers plenty of mystery and intrigue through a compellingly flawed character, an adult searching as desperately for a sense of self as any adolescent protagonist.

Praise for Montmorency and the Assassins
Updale’s antihero may have aged , but the author keeps the series vital by grafting on two engaging younger characters and judiciously-and craftily-pruning two older ones , thereby sending one survivor into the next entry with a burden of guilt and imbuing the entire cast with a raging desire for revenge. Bring on the sequel, and hurry. Bulleti
